Measure factory farming risk

Global population and meat consumption continue to rise. An increased demand for animal livestock has led to intensive factory farming. 99% of US and 70% of global farm animals are ‘factory farmed’. In one example, we measured over 200,000 animals in a 2.5 sq. km farm. This intensity of farming has unwanted side effects.

Antibiotic over-use on livestock has increased resistance in humans. A growing consumer backlash on animal welfare poses an investment risk for agribusiness investors. Quantitatively minded investors are looking for objective and measurable metrics to screen and conduct due-diligence on agri-business opportunities.

Animal density is objective and doesn’t rely on farm businesses to self report

We can measure animal density for any agri-business or geography. Animal density is a proxy for animal welfare and associated risks. Thus we provide an objective and accurate metric that doesn’t rely on self-reporting. We can measure animal density on a per request basis or at scale across geographies.
